Vintage Party Swap Loot: Part One

Wow. Time sure does fly when you're having fun... and we've been having a lot of fun around here! Birthday parties, barbeques, day trips. The weather was absolutely gorgeous for 2 straight weeks. Now it is cold and rainy and like 40 degrees. Go fig.

Needless to say, I haven't spent much time at the computer. It's been a race to pack orders and then head to the park or get an ice cream or play in the yard. So much fun! But, I've really missed all my bloggy friends! I hope to catch up all the goings-on today.

I realized that I never posted pics of Artsy Mama's Vintage Party Swap!!! This swap was such a blast... all of Kari's swaps are fantastic!!! I was partnered us with Jenn of Eyecandy Creations. Have you seen her work... and her house?!?! OMG!!! I had the pleasure of meeting Jenn at Silver Bella last November. She is a total doll. I was sooooo excited for this swap!


Here are the goodies that I sent to her!


A little chickie all decked out to party! This was my handmade gift for Jenn. The chick was purchased at the craft store and I added the hat and pearls. The little cake stand is decorated in vintage wallpaper, pom-pom trim, and has a glass pedestal base. I just loved this little cutie!


A "Sweets, Treats, and Cupcakes" kit. Just some fun cupcake toppers, sprinkles, cookie cutters, etc.


A Party Hat Decorating Kit... a little craft kit that I put together with pink paper party hats, crepe paper ruffles, ribbons, vintage flowers, glitter, and other embellishments.

And the rest of the goodies... a vintage party book, a vintage pin the tail on the donkey game, lots of candy, a little elephant planter, and some other little party treats.

Next time, I'll share what she sent!!!
(She totally spoiled me!!!!!)
